Tyler Baltierra left his native Michigan and headed south to New Orleans earlier this week and while he isn’t used to being away from his longtime girlfriend Catelynn Lowell, he seems to be adjusting just fine. The Teen Mom star is pursuing an acting career in the big city and he’s having fun exploring the new sites.

“Just walked 10 blocks with 2 40lb bags of groceries in each hand! #groceryshoppinginthecity #screwthat,” he wrote earlier this week. “City Park down the street from me! #sonicehere #Nolalove.”

He’s also been getting to know the food including their world famous French food. “Eating breakfast at this place called Rene Bistrot #neworleans #thisplaceisgood,” he said.

It’s good to see that Tyler is enjoying his time in New Orleans and it isn’t all work related. Hopefully, Catelynn will be visiting soon and he can share the town with her! It the meantime, Catelynn hasn’t been having such an easy time. She recently told fans that she has been having trouble sleeping without her man beside her.
